Historic Hotels in Tamil Nadu from NZ$45

"Good scenic beauty and good food "

"Beautiful property snd rooms are very spacious and comfortable. It has all the modern amenities while retaining the old school charm of such an old building. We loved the wood burning fire place in the room as well. Breakfast was really good and staff at breakfast place was very friendly and courteous and service was top notch. Afternoon high tea was also amazing. Property has a beautiful courtyard and several charming cottages and suites. Highly recommend staying here for Ooty visit"

"Like: Location walkable into town and the rock carvings. On a large plot running down to the sea and huge pool. Cottage was spacious with view over golf course to the sea. Staff friendly and helpful. Large comfortable bed. Dislike: Sunbeds need renewing. 2 of stairs into pool broken. Litter not cleared away.No chairs/ sun beds on the beach and unfinished buildings next to the beach. Resort needs some TLC which may have started as lobby area being renovated."

"The property from the outside felt more like a hotel. But, once you enter it feels like you are staying in someone's home. The staff was very attentive. Food choice was minimal and was a bit underwhelming. They had a cooking demo planned for 4 PM, and they insisted we be on time during the check-in process. We cut short our outside trip and returned on time, only to be told that they are waiting for other guests and will not start until all the guests arrive. So much for being punctual and...

"The bed sheets and pillow cases were not clean The bathroom shower area was dirty Breakfast could have been better with more continental choices. I had asked for a special impetus but they said they won’t be making eggs as they had scrambled eggs - which was very cold!"

"This property is a great value if you are staying in Mahabalipuram. Its a bit dated however the staff is excellent and accommodating. The location is perfect for visting the temples and the beach. "

"Everything at hotel was gr8...only disappointment was mosquito attack in the night...though they provided the mosquito repellant mat but dat was not effective...the room, view, cleanliness and the staff was very nice...even the comlimentary breakfast was okay."

"This is probably the best accommodation we saw in the town itself. It was brightly lit and easy to find. The streets around the hotel are dirty but probablly no more dirty than anywhere in India. I cant blame the hotel for thet. The staff here are very helpful and courteous. I enjoyed my stay here and would not hesitate to reccomend it to anyone. There are a few nice restaurants next to the hotel where you can get a beer and some wine."
